Sequencer prerequisite software

What to know before installing the prerequisites:

  • Best practice: The computer that runs the Sequencer should have the same hardware and software configurations as the computers that will run the virtual applications.

  • The sequencing process is resource intensive, so make sure that the computer that runs the Sequencer has plenty of memory, a fast processor, and a fast hard drive. The system requirements of locally installed applications cannot exceed those of the Sequencer. For more information, see App-V Supported Configurations.
